Chapter 180: Someone Sent by the Hales
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lucas’s words made Dominic feel uneasy. In fact, he was indeed extremely surprised to see Lucas showing up unscathed in front of him today.
The fact that Lucas had disrupted the banquet held by the Hales yesterday and even pressed the head of Connor Hale, the next successor of the Hale family, directly into a bowl of soup made him confident that the Hales certainly wouldn’t let him off!
After thinking about it for a long while, Dominic thought that the Hales definitely hadn’t exacted revenge yet because they were busy with the banquet yesterday and hadn’t had the time to deal with Lucas!
“Punk, I suggest you better not be too arrogant. Don’t think that the Hales are scared of you just because they haven’t come looking for you yet! Once they come later, you’ll be in tears!” Dominic barked sinisterly.
“Haha, such a fool.” Lucas sneered. He couldn’t be bothered to say much to Dominic.
Dominic was still clueless about the fact that the Hales had fallen, and neither did he know about the things Lucas had done at the Hales’ banquet last night.
In the opinions of people like Dominic, who were like frogs in a well, the Hales were just like the relatives of royalty, as they were one of the four major families of Orange County. It was as if no one could disobey their orders as long as the people sent by the Hales arrived.
I wonder how Dominic Carter will react after finding out what happened to the Hales last night.
Seeing how stubborn Dominic was, Lucas didn’t say anything else and simply stepped hard onto Bryce’s other leg, crushing the bones into bits!
“Ah!” Bryce shrieked, and his eyes rolled into the back of his head as he fainted.
His legs were both broken, and one of his wrists was just crushed by Lucas’s foot. The other arm still hadn’t recovered after being snapped and broken by Lucas some time ago.
It was reasonable to say that Bryce’s limbs had all been broken.
Dominic glared at Lucas with extreme resentment and hatred that seemed to be on the verge of erupting from his eyes.
After seeing the miserable state her son was in, Sarah shrieked at the top of her lungs. Then she rushed at Lucas and waved her hands to scratch his face. But before she could get close, Jordan kicked her to the ground, causing her to pass out.
At this moment, a silvery-gray Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle drove over and stopped outside the Carter residence. Soon, a short and chubby middle-aged man got out of the car, followed by two tall bodyguards clad in black suits and shades.
As soon as Dominic saw the person who came, he immediately acted as if he had seen his savior. He hurried over and greeted respectfully, “Mr. Holmes, you’re finally here to save us! This arrogant punk Lucas Gray just broke my grandson’s limbs in front of us! Moreover, he’s extremely disrespectful to the Hales…”
“Shut up!” The short and fat middle-aged man, Anthony Holmes, roared sternly to stop Dominic from complaining after hearing Lucas’s name. When he saw the familiar-looking young man standing just a short distance away and staring at him with an ambiguous smile, he immediately shuddered!
It’s really him!
This fool Dominic Carter actually asked me to bring my people over to deal with Lucas Gray. Does he have a death wish?
At this moment, Holmes had an urge to kill Dominic!
“Mr. Holmes, you…” Being rebuked out of the blue by someone decades younger than him, Dominic was naturally extremely irked. But he knew that he couldn’t afford to offend the short and chubby Holmes, so he had no choice but to suppress his dissatisfaction and ask with a smile.
“Get lost!” Holmes obviously couldn’t be bothered to care about Dominic. He pushed him away and then scurried toward Lucas. He bent forward and said respectfully, “Mr. Gray, I’m really sorry. If I had known that this old fogy Dominic Carter wanted to deal with you, I would have never agreed to his request! Don’t worry. I’ll have someone cease all cooperation between the Hales and the Carters!”
Then he said to the bodyguards clad in black, “Didn’t you hear what I just said? Hurry up and call the other people who hold authority in the Hale family to cease all cooperation with the Carters!”
Holmes’s words made the Carters, who were waiting for the Hales to ‘get rid of evil’, utterly astonished. Their hearts fell to rock bottom!
In particular, Dominic watched everything in disbelief, his eyes almost popping out!
He couldn’t believe what he heard. But Holmes had repeated himself, so he had no choice but to believe it!
Dominic looked at Holmes anxiously in disbelief. “Mr. Holmes, are you… mistaken about something? Lucas Gray made so much trouble at the Hales’ banquet last night, and he even disrespected Mr. Connor Hale… I asked you to come over to teach him a lesson because he not only offended the Carters but also the Hales! Why are you treating him so respectfully and terminating all cooperation with us?”
Holmes looked at Dominic like he was looking at a fool. You want to teach Lucas Gray a lesson? You should count yourselves lucky that he hasn’t killed you yet!
All the people who stayed behind at the Hales’ banquet last night had witnessed how Lucas defeated the top henchman of the Hales, John Hans, and even beat up the 20-odd fighters who besieged him.
Moreover, around two hundred soldiers clad in a dark green army uniform and armed with guns appeared later to arrest all of the Hales. No one would believe that they had nothing to do with Lucas.
Only fools would want to go against such a terrifying person like Lucas Gray!
He, Anthony Holmes, would never do such a stupid thing! “Fool! Mr. Gray isn’t someone the Carters afford to offend! Don’t implicate me if you have a death wish!”
Dominic was incredibly stunned. What… identity can Lucas Gray possibly have? He’s just a good-for-nothing I kicked out of the family!
Just as Dominic was about to argue, another silvery-gray Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle stopped at the Carters’ entrance, and an elite businessman clad in a suit alighted.
Dominic was shocked again. “Mr. Cohen, what brings you here?”
He hurriedly greeted him, but Cohen likewise pushed him away and ran straight toward Lucas. He bowed and said deferentially, “Hello, Mr. Gray! I am the person in charge of the Sky High Corporation that belongs to the Hale family. I heard that you’re handling something here, so I specially came to visit you. If there’s anything you need, just leave it to me!”
As the general manager of the Sky High Corporation that belonged to the Hale family, Cohen was extremely subservient and respectful toward Lucas!
Dominic felt his heart jump even more.
He was still puzzled by what Holmes had said and was wondering if Holmes was mistaken about something. But Cohen behaved in the same way. This just meant that Holmes didn’t make a mistake but that something major had happened, and he was still clueless about it!
